We think these are three Squires (or Squire) sisters (possibly Ettie, Bertha & Ida) and their mother Louisa in front of the Squires house, circa early 1900s. They lived in the country outside of St. Mary's Ontario but sadly we don't know the exact location.

If you Look at http://digital.library.mcgill.ca/countyatlas/default.htm This will show a number of Gunnings in the Area near Whalen there is also a Thomas Squire in 1879

In 1909 Harvey was Married and Verda was a witness and stated she lived Whalen ----as she was at Home in the 1911 census they must Live close to that point as it had a post Office in 1879 and that must be where their mail came from

My feelings is they either took over one of Gunnings farms or Purchased a farm but it would be not too far from that Point
